Walton and District Community FoodBank
Description
Helping to combat Food Poverty in our community.
Open to all who live in postal districts CO13 and CO14 who have a genuine need of temporary food aid. The FoodBank is a Voluntary Organisation originally set up by Walton Churches Together to address some of the problems stemming from the growing level of poverty within our district. Although it is essentially a Christian organisation, the FoodBank is not tied to any particular church or ministry. It draws its team members from, and serves, the whole wider community
What do we do?
The FoodBank's primary mission is to give Emergency Food Aid to those in financial distress. But even for those who are not in need of one of our Food Parcels we can still provide a friendly and supportive place just to drop in for a cup of tea and a chat.
What area do we cover?
The FoodBank serves the same area as Frinton and Walton Town Council. That is: Frinton on Sea, Great Holland, Kirby Cross, Kirby le Soken and Walton on the Naze.
Who do we help?
Anybody within our operational area, irrespective of age, sex, ethnicity, ability, religion or political views, who is in genuine crisis and in need of Emergency Food Aid.
Opening Hours:
Mondays 11:30 to 12:30 to receive donations.
Fridays 10:30 to 13:00 for distribution of Food Parcels
Closed Bank Holidays
